1. Yes, Virginia, there is a Loudoun County Animal Shelter and it cares.

by: ztT4MP75020923

This shelter works hard to place animals. It participates in PetSmart animal fairs, has open houses regularly, advertises in local newspapers, offers animals on Petfinder.com. They work with foster animal caretakers and with local breed rescue groups Their "Grey Whiskers" program is. The website lists and shows pictures of animals currently available for adoption, with excellent comments about each animal.\n\nThe staff and volunteers are always cheerful and very knowledgeable. I've visited the shelter numerous times and the cages and runs are kept immaculately clean. They are very careful about making sure that the animals available for adoption are in good health and have no behavior problems.\n\nIn spite of the extraordinary growth in Loudoun County (#2 in the USA), they have worked hard to keep up with both demand for and intake of animals. Although the shelter was expanded a few years back, it could really use some additional space for the rabbits, guinea pigs, and other kinds of animals. I have adopted 2 cats in the last several years from the Loudoun animal shelter and plan to adopt more in the future. It is a pleasure to work with these folks!
